Brónach 1,301 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Probably deleted because it made no sense.I've seen another deleted scene with the guy that finds Banner after he lands, which was weird, as in "random mentor figure pops up from nowhere for a scene", so the deletion of that was also a good idea.

Brónach 1,301 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I loved the cinematography of The Dark Knight Rises, but it's highly ironic that the cinematographer of The Dark Knight Rises accuses The Avengers of illogical storytelling.

Quintus 5,399 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Can't say I'm especially struck by the photography of either, especially the hoity toityness of Inception. To be perfectly honest I prefer the broader aesthetic of The Avengers, with it's broader, lighter colour palette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brónach 1,301 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I just really liked all the different tricks in TDKR to give it a "white" colour palette, in contrast with the blue of TDK and the orange of BB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wycket 36 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Pfister is a superb cinematographer. Probably my favorite after Deakins.He is very good. He is also about to direct his first movie, so those comments were likely nothing more as an attempt to spread awareness of his name and considering how much I've seen them the past couple days I'd say it did the job.

Matt C 452 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Ooo, get you! http://uk.ign.com/ar...ngers-appallingPfister's comments are just tactless and rude. He's a cinematographer and he has every right to criticize another one's work, but I mean come on. The Avengers wasn't a very showy film, cinematography-wise, but it looked great in places and did the job just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt C 452 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 There's a difference between saying you didn't like something and openly provoking conflict.

Score_Fan 36 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Something along the lines of"What a shame. I'm a fan of his"; and that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wycket 36 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I agree with saying it was appalling was uncalled for. But he clarified his statements in the exact same interview saying that he saw them simply using shots to show off sets and effects which isn't necessarily wrong.

Delorean90 42 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I haven't seen any films McGarvey shot before The Avengers, but Anna Karenina looks absolutely stunning--I was kind of surprised to find it was shot by the same DP. I guess it's just the aesthetic Whedon and McGarvey agreed on. I do appreciate the color palette, but I feel like it does suffer some from a certain bareness to its tone.

Delorean90 42 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 How do you mean? Come to think of it, I'm kind of confused as to what those comments really mean in general. It seems like that would be one prominent function of shots in a film of this nature...I can't help but think he meant something that he wasn't articulating very well.

Nolan's Batman films are quite minimalistic in how they're shot. The Dark Knight Rises may be an exception here, but a lot of the action scenes are filmed quite close.

Matt C 452 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Not really, actually. Nolan's Batman films are quite minimalistic in how they're shot. The Dark Knight Rises may be an exception here, but a lot of the action scenes are filmed quite close.I see a lot more establishing 'money shot/set decoration' shots in Batman Begins. The upwards panning of the League's mountain base as Bruce arrives, the early establishing shots of Iceland, the sequence where Batman ambushes Crane and his lackeys in the abandoned apartment complex and so forth. And as for the action sequences, they may be tightly-shot but they do allow the CGI and scale models to be shown off to their best advantage (especially the train pursuit in BB and the various shots of The Bat in action in the third film).I'm not a trained cinematographer, but Pfister's work on The Dark Knight Rises is no less showier than McGarvey's work on The Avengers. There's a few instances where both directors seem to be indirectly channeling one another in places... and not just the climatic action set-piece but one scene near the end of "Rises" that felt inspired from Whedon's Buffy.

Wycket 36 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Yeah, I don't necessarily understand why he said what he said considering that he basically does the same thing. But I still think it boils down to him trying to make a name for himself away from Nolan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Visually The The Avengers doesn't have the same flair as TDKR. Which looked great in IMAX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Skywalker 1,793 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 um i supposed this was mentioned before...Ijust heard this Led zeppelin song in the radio calle Kashmir on the radio...

Wojo 2,453 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I know Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir" inside and out, and I don't hear anything close enough that I would consider "uncanny." There is a slight similarity in the rhythm -- three short notes followed by a rest -- but the bass line in "Kashmir" is much slower and actually changes its pitch to work as the driving melody of much of the song, while the bass line in the Avengers' main theme is just there to support the melody, which is totally different.

Wojo 2,453 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 You do, of course, realize it's a rock song with words that serves no soundtrack usage whatsoever, don't you?Or is the facial hair pulling you back into the damp dark 70s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Skywalker 1,793 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 well the background ruthm sounded pretty similar to me...but i must be deaf.well maybe it was not the avenger main theme... its the musical rythm than opens the film and the end credits.
